From the Catwalk to the Sidewalk

I was looking through some pictures of different collections shown at fashion week and was wishing I could wear some of the outfits I saw. Of course everything on the runway is far to expensive for me to even dream of owning, as I'm sure is true for most of you. But it got me thinking, that it would be cool to try and re-create some of the designers outfits using cheeper pieces from clothing stores I can actually afford. It ended up being quite a fun little experiment; going to different online stores, and looking through their clothing to try and spot the perfect shirt, skirt, etc, that most closely resembled the one on the runway. I highly recommend doing this if you too want to be seen in the most current and on trend looks. And it just goes to show that anyone really can rock the 'runway look' without the 'runway price.'

Textures 'in Vogue'

While scouring Vogue.com for inspiration I came across this outfit from London Fashion Week, that I thought I would share with you. 

I seriously cannot get enough of this outfit. I am in love! It's so unique, and yet so perfectly on trend. This outfit is what I like to call 'busy'. Every piece of it is made up of a different pattern and a different texture. Pairing different textures, and patterns is very 'in vogue' at the moment, and this outfit could not be a more perfect example of how to style the trend. Also, the detail in this outfit is amazing; from the cuffing of the pants, to the tucked in shirt, to the sunglasses. At first look, it may be hard to take it all in, but when you take the time to look at it more closely, and pay attention to the detail, it really becomes this beautiful work of art in a way. 

I know everyone may not like the idea of pairing all these different textures and patterns together, or may not think they could pull it off, and thats perfectly okay. That's the great thing about fashion, it's not one size fits all, it's really one size fits one. You get to decide what you like and what you don't, and draw inspiration from other peoples looks, and use it to create your own unique, one of a kind style. So stay beautifully unique, and rock what you feel best in.
